Experiences with community service—even small acts of service—are important differentiators in competitive scholarships. We urge you to volunteer for at least 10 hours to help your community, church, school or neighbors so that you have this experience as a qualified applicant.

The musical arts were important to Bruce, the namesake of this scholarship. If this is an area of interest to you, please mention it, even if you do not intend to make it your major course of study.

Have you solicited a letter of recommendation from a mentor or teacher? These can be submitted with your application or directly to your school counselor, but should be completed early.

Do you have a copy of your high school and college transcript included with your application?
